Book Review - Mr. Halloweenster Saves the Day

About the Book
Adapted from the children's short animated film available on YouTube, the story begins the day before Halloween: Mr. Halloweenster is helping the kids get costumes for the parade and trick-or-treating. Then the kids get tricked into forgetting all about their costumes and the parade. It takes quite a bit of imagination along with some Halloween magic for Mr. Halloweenster to save the day.

My Take on the Book
I was not sure what to expect from the title. It is an interesting story. The best part of Halloween has always been seeing the children in their costumes and some are so creative. The main character, Mr. Halloweenster, feels the same way and encourages the children to dress up and have fun.

However a sinister adversary wants the children to show only their greed at receiving the candy and dismiss the fun of the Halloween parades and dressing up in costumes. He almost succeeds, but the hero, Mr. Halloweenster steps in to bring back the fun.

If Halloween has become just the running from house to house to acquire the most candy and the fun of dressing up and enjoying the joy of the night has been forgotten, then maybe this story will bring back some inspiration to bring back the true meaning of Halloween into your children's celebration.
